Paris Saint-Germain is closing in on a £40 million deal with Manchester United for Angel di Maria.
United paid £59.7 million for Di Maria last summer from Real Madrid.
Ed Woodward, the executive vice-chairman of United, is in final negotiations and it would be a surprise if the Argentina international did not depart the club.
“You know negotiations are in tandem [ongoing] and as Paris Saint-Germain [and United] are both big clubs, that can be difficult," said Laurent Blanc. "But we feel we are close to the end.”
PSG initially offered £28.5 million to United.
